title: Production of beta-glucosidase, exo-beta-1,4-glucanase and endo-beta-1,4-glucanase by selected microscopic fungi.
abstract: Production of beta-glucosidase, exo-beta-1,4-glucanase and endo-beta-1,4-glucanase was screened in 58 species of imperfect fungi, mucoral fungi and some ascomycetes. beta-Glucosidase activity was found in all of the tested microorganisms, exo-beta-1,4-glucanase activity in 23, and endo-beta-1,4=glucanase activity in 38 microorganisms. Growth on cellobiose was found in all tested microorganisms, growth on carboxymethylcellulose in in 38 tested strains.
